Olympians in Trafalger
This past Thursday, a large parade through town ended up in Trafalger Square with all of the British Olympic team. It was a beautiful day and attracted a huge crowd.
After the cheering, I popped into St. Martin’s in the Field and noticed a radical new interior from when I was last there. A string quartet was practicing for the Thursday night recital which was fun. The new apse window and the removal of most of the interior alter pieces was a bit of a shock! The ceiling detail, highlighted with new lights and gold leaf, looked good.
That is pretty extreme. We saw its sister church in NYC. St. Pauls. Looks like it but smaller and the alter is still there. It houses all the 9-11 info.
